>> the death toll for the wildfires numbers rising as we witness the scope of the disaster. we'll look at the island's needs with a member from the red cross. plus -- donald trump making an appearance at the iowa state fair but all eyes are on georgia as a district attorney there prepares her case for the grand jury. and months after suffering cardiac arrest in the middle of an nfl game, damar hamlin is back in action. cnn sports coy wire joins me live on his incredible road to recovery. >> announcer: live from cnn center, this is "cnn newsroom" with laila harrak. we'll begin in hawaii where days after wildfires decimated par parts of maui the death toll is rising.
2:02 am
moments ago authorities confirmed 93 deaths. the fires now the deadliest in the united states in more than a century. that number is expected to climb even more in the coming days as crews sift through the devastation caused by the fires. governor josh green says the area has suffered some $6 billion in losses. some 2200 structures damaged or destroyed. vast majority of them homes. >> this is the largest natural disaster we've ever experienced. it's going to also be a natural disaster that's going to take an incredible amount of time to recover from. the so in the next few days as we care for how many people we've lost and how many people are coming into our community, please understand we come at this because it's going to be in the short term heartbreaking, in the long term people are going to need mental health care services, in the very long term
2:03 am
we'll rebuild together. >> the administrator of the federal emergency management agency visited maui saturday to see the devastation firsthand. she also spoke with many residents affected by the fire and this is what she had to say. >> i heard their stories. i heard their harrowing stories of escape, evacuating and evacuating again. a car that was caught on fire and they got into somebody else's car, yet what i always find even during these incredibly tragic times is this resilience of a community to come together and support each other and that's what i saw. >> while people are indeed supporting each other, we're in maui and we got a firsthand look at neighbors helping neighbors. >> reporter: i've covered enough advice of mr. rogers, when things get scary, look for the
2:04 am
helpers. there's no shortage in maui, some now five days after the firestorm. here we are in a port that's a very bumpy, long boat ride away. that hill in the distance, that's west maui mountain. lahaina is on the other side of that. these are boat loads of neighbors volunteering, donating fuel, water, essentials. there's a cry for baby supplies, burn medication after the firestorm over there. that's what they're dealing with here in the short term. they say they are overwhelmed by the response in a way that challenges management. >> it is a heartbreaking situation and our hearts go out to every single one of the impacted victims here and the ina, everyone who has built their homes here. we respect you.
2:05 am
we are hear for you. we are partnering with you. we will bring you back. we will rebuild. we will come back stronger than ever before. i'm a voice for the people of maui, this is for local citizens that lost their homes. lost their family members and perhaps even lost their lives. we're out here boots on the ground really trying to make a difference. we appreciate all the support. >> reporter: at the same time you have people gathering together, doing their part and burning off the anxiety that came from this trying to help in a tangible way right now. it's going to be best when they open up the highway. that's been a source of frustration. there's the ever present question of how high the body count will go. bill weir, cnn, maui. >> joining us now live from honolulu, hawaii, is evan peterson, the spokesperson for the american red cross. thank you so much for joining
2:06 am
us. i understand the red cross is on the ground in hawaii. can you explain how your teams are helping those affected by this disaster? >> yes. the american red cross has been here since even before the disaster started. we have an office here and when we saw what was going on and saw how quickly this fire was spreading across the area, we immediately started communicating with officials in trying to figure out what do we know what the ask, what the need is going to be? what we've foungdd is people ne a place to stay, not only people that are impacted by this fire, including the local residents that live on maui, but also tourists, people coming in from out of town and who lost their hotel. so we've been providing shelter, we've been providing a place for people to grieve and process and
2:07 am
start figuring out what those next steps can look like now. >> now as you've just outlined, the red cross disaster workers have opened shelters on maui to accommodate those displaced. is that sufficient? >> right now, again, we are staying in contact with local officials about kind of what is needed. right now we are finding that our shelter capacity is appropriate for this need. sometimes people can -- may have lost a place to stay, for instance, but instead of going to a shelter will end up staying with family or friends on other islands. right now we find we are currently meeting the needs but we are prepared to change and adapt as needed. >> right. exactly. as i understand, this is still very much an evolving situation. do you expect more people to turn to you for help? >> i don't know if i would --
2:08 am
i'm in a position to say whether i expect more people to return for us to help. we are going to be there whether people do or not. we were on this island before this incident happened. we've been here through the entire process. even since the -- since this incident started we have sheltered for overnight stays nearly 3,000 people. even during the day when the need for the shelters grows exponentially, we're seeing people coming in and out, getting food, getting water, charging their phones if they're able to make a call to connect their loved ones. whatever the need is that people have, we're going to be there and support them. >> is aide coming through? are you able to reach even those that have been isolated by the fires? >> isolation is tough, as you've been hearing from your reports. we're still trying to deal with the infrastructure of this
2:09 am
problem. this fire destroyed roads. it destroyed cell phone towers, lines of communication. we are doing our best to work within those confines, but we are so fortunate to be, working with a very resilient people who are wanting us to succeed in trying to reach out to our neighbors. so, again, the challenges are there but we are resilient and we are finding ways with local government officials, our community partners and of course people to solve these problems. >> and for those who are still looking for their loved ones, what is your advice to snem. >> right now we are working on unifying them. with communication being down, i spoke to someone the other day who they haven't heard from a cousin of theirs who disappeared during the fire.
2:10 am
fortunately just earlier today they did hear back from them and found out that they had been in the same town that they were in this whole time but because of lack of communication, lack of cell phone towers, things like that, they couldn't hear from them. so we are currently working with the local government and emergency officials to start a reunification process. this is currently taking place. anyone who is interested in trying to track down a loved one please call 1-800-red-cross and there will be automated prompts to walk you through that process. >> american red cross spokesperson evan peterson, thank you so much for your time. >> thank you. now if you would like information on how to help those impacted by the hawaii wildfires, do please go to cnn.com/impact or text hawaii to
2:11 am
707070 today. wind gusts in maui are expected to stay in the 30 to 40-mile-an-hour range today and the continental u.s. heat indices could be over 115 degrees. heat watches are in effect for the pacific northwest. records could be broken in portland, oregon, over the next few days as severe storms and damaging wind, hail, isolated tornadoes are likely across the southern and central plains. storms are already brewing near tulsa and omaha. perhaps most troubling a new tropical cyclone expected to develop and move south of hawaii. a new system is not expected to be as strong as dora. donald trump, the leading republican presidential candidate, could face a fourth indictment as early as this
2:12 am
week. an atlanta prosecutor has called on at least two people to testify before a grand jury on tuesday over efforts by trump and his allies to overturn election results in georgia. cnn's marshall cohen has details. >> reporter: it looks like all systems are go for the fulton county district attorney to present her case to a grand jury early this week in her investigation of former president donald trump and his attempts to overturn the 2020 election in georgia. cnn previously reported that this was expected in the coming days but we now know that some of the witnesses who were subpoenaed to testify were told specifically to show up on tuesday. that means that the proceedings may begin monday going into tuesday. one of those witnesses is an independent journalist named george cheney who witnessed some of the fake pro trump electors meeting at the statehouse in atlanta in december 2020.
2:13 am
another key figure who will head to the grand jury on tuesday is former georgia lieutenant governor jeff duncan. here's what he told our colleague, fredricka whitfield on sunday. >> i did just receive notification to appear on tuesday morning at the fulton county grand jury to recount facts. i have no problem answering whatever questions put in front of me. don't want to go any deeper than that to jeopardize and compromise the investigation. look, for me this is a story that's important for republicans to hear, americans to hear. let's hear the whole truth and nothing but the truth about donald trump's actions and the surrounding cast of characters. >> reporter: duncan, who is now a cnn contributor, is a republican. he was in office when trump tried to pressure georgia state officials to flip it and overturn the will of the voters. a criminal investigation was
2:14 am
launched in 2021. the probe has steadily expanded over time. she has scrutinized trump's fake elector scheme as well as efforts by trump supporters to breach an election system. state prosecutors are expected to give the one or two-day presentation to the grand jury this week. cnn has reported that she is eyeing conspiracy and racketeering charges known as rico and is expected to pursue indictments for as many as three defendants. trump has been indicted on his attempt to subvert the 2020 election and disenfranchise voters. he pleaded not guilty and he has claimed the probe in atlanta is just another witch hunt. marshall cohen, cnn, washington. joining me now is cnn senior political analyst ron
2:15 am
brownstein. he's also senior editor at the atlantic. ron, up to now the ex-president's reaction to the number of indictments has been, you know, one of defiance, challenging at times. will this approach be effective in the georgia daze case? >> in the republican context almost certainly it will be. you know, donald trump has succeeded in convincing, not that they took a lot of conv convincing, i think, the majority of republican voters. to see all of these indictments through his frame, which is they are going after me but they're really trying to silence you and i am in the way and this is weaponization of the federal government and so forth. it is a very different question whether ultimately if he is the republican nominee the broader electorate will view that in the same manner. there are some warning signs on the dashboard for republicans, but in terms of how this is playing out in the republican primary at least so far, he's
2:16 am
been able to convince voters to see how he wants them. >> how does this compare to the other cases? >> it may be the most sprawling of all of them in the sense that the georgia prosecutor has been by all indications has been investigating this as in effect a racketeering case which is another way of saying a broad conspiracy in which there are many players and it is possible that unlike the federal special counsel who chose not to indict at this point anyone except donald trump to streamline that case, this may be a very expansive and sweeping indictment that, you know, brings together not only figures from trump's national orbit but from the state and it is a reminder, state legislators who are involved in the, for example, state elector scheme, it is a reminder that those types of cases are proceeding. there's one in michigan. there's a case under investigation in arizona.
2:17 am
so this may be the broadest set of -- it covers only georgia. it doesn't -- no one thinks it's going to cover the same grounds nationally as jack smith but it may have the broadest cast of characters. donald trump, is that the only one with the special counsel concerns? special counsel has also been appointed in the investigation into president biden's son. the department of justice now has three special counsels. how extraordinary is this and how does this fit into the upcoming election? >> it's reminiscent of the narrowing of powers at the justice department. it goes to who merrick garland, the attorney general, is. he bends over backwards to avoid -- not that it's helped him avoid in terms of republican accusations, but his goal is the
2:18 am
tense of avoiding the justice department is not acting appropriately. dwr donald trump, the accusations against donald trump are of far more gravity and magnitude than anything they're looking into by all that we know with hunter biden. hunter biden's behavior was unseemly and by the testimony we have his father probably went too far in allowing him to project that air of insiderdom. there is no testimony that joe biden in any way tried to do favors for the clients themselves. republicans have failed to produce any evidence of that claim.
2:19 am
even if there was, i'm not sure that overturns the peaceful turnover of power. if he is the nominee and he's on trial while he's a nominee, it will challenge voters. >> ron brownstein, thank you so much. >> sure. we'll have more on the hunter biden investigation ahead. what the appointment of a special counsel means and the white house reaction ahead on "cnn newsroom." plus, ukraine reportedly gained some ground in its slow moving counter offensive and it happened in an area where it's been trying to push ahead for weeks. an all-in-one cleaning tool with a 360-degree swivel head that goeoes places a regular mop just can't.

southern ukraine. this video from a russian state news agency shows fighting in the area. other footage posted that cnn can't geo locate shows troops entering the village friday. meanwhile, russia is lashing out at ukraine after a reported new missile attack on the crimea bridge. this video appears to show russian air defenses at work before three missiles were reportedly shot down on saturday. the bridge is a life line for many russian military operations and a major political symbol for president vladimir putin. for more we can now go to clare sebastian in london. clare, good to see you again. what more do we know about the missile attack on the cr crimea
2:25 am
bridge. >> reporter: this was modified foreground attack and they're saying as well. they were, according to russia, shot down and damaged. we don't know. it seems there was some sort of smoke screen set up to obscure the bridge. it was a little unclear. obviously as you say, this bridge is something that ukraine has previously claimed responsibility for attacking and they are not saying anything about this latest one, but despite what russia says repeatedly claiming this is a piece of civilian infrastructure, that is not borne out in reality. it is the only fixed link between russian mainland territory through which they can resupply forces along the southern front. this has a clear logistical motive for ukraine to disrupt those logistics.
2:26 am
for russia, this is symbolic. putin has driven across it. for ukraine it's a symbol of that ongoing occupation and russia's ability to keep that war going. this is what we're seeing from both sides. russia wants to claim it's civilian infrastructure. ukraine is sending out a message it's a clear target. laila? >> they have made gains on the ground in the counteroffensive? >> reporter: yes. ukraine is pushing very hard along two axes trying to get to crimea. russia may be defending, trying to hold off ukraine except in the far northern line in kharkiv
2:27 am
where it's trying to take back some territory that it lost in previous months. what we're hearing as of saturday is that around the southern and western part of the southern front ukraine be is making gains claiming partial suc success. we know that area of the western part of the southern front is one of the heavily fortified areas. they have built up areas, bunkers, mine fields. if ukraine can make any progress at all, that may be the fruits of days and weeks of work to get to that point. what we don't know is how far back the russian defenses go and how much work will need to go through pushing that area. >> clare sebastian from london. thank you for your continued coverage. still ahead, pressing the

indication yet she's moving forward in her investigations by trump and her allies to overturn election results in her state. she has instructed at least two witnesses to testify tuesday before a grand jury. one of them is former georgia lieutenant governor jeff duncan who is also a cnn contributor. donald trump isn't showing any signs of despair facing a possible fourth indictment, he's on the campaign trail joining other republican candidates a the the iowa state fair. jeff zeleny has the details. >> reporter: the iowa state fair on saturday was a playground for presidential candidates including, of course, former president donald trump who arrived here in des moines at the very time it was being learned that the georgia grand jury will continue their investigation and interviews of witnesses next week. of course, the former president defiant about that role in the georgia election back in 2020 when he is accused of trying to meddle in that election.
2:33 am
he called the call to brad raffensperger a perfectly fine call. he talked about his front-runner status in the race. he said he's taking nothing for granted. >> so we'll be back. we are not taking any chances. we are way up in the polls tonight, all over the country, up by over 50 points. that's a lot. we don't want to take any chances. we'll be back. we love you very much. >> trump only stayed at the fair for a couple of hours. his rivals stayed longer greeting many voters making their case why they should be the alternative. desantis had his wife and family in tow riding the bumper cars, playing games. he was talking about his leading rival donald trump and his refusal to sign that debate pledge. >> you doesn't take your ball and go home.
2:34 am
it's not about just you. you have to be willing to stand up and support the team. >> reporter: nikki haley spending considerable time here at the iowa state fair as she has been doing for months, holding town meetings across the state. she is calling for a new generation of leaders and she said it's time for the party to m move on. >> don't complain about what happens in the general election if you don't play in this caucus. it matters. >> reporter: with five months to go, the challenge, of course, is on for many of these candidates to make their case for voters. many will get a chance to do so at that republican presidential debate less than two weeks to go in milwaukee. some will not make the debate stage. one thing is clear, yes, many support donald trump. many are still fans of his but
2:35 am
many also are questioning these indictments and simply if he can win a general election. one thing that's clear, the next phase of his campaign will be an aggressive one. attorney general merrick garland has given the u.s. attorney who has been investigating hunter biden special counsel status. weiss asked for the change in designation as hunter biden appears to face trial on tax and gun charges. this gives weiss more investigative powers and puts him at a distance from the department of justice. some say weiss cannot be trusted. they say he's given the president's son special consideration. >> he has made very clear the
2:36 am
mistake he has made and that's all he's made a mistake about. am i concerned? i am only concerned that a force other than facts or law would influence any additional decision and if this prosecutor with a new title now continues doing what he's supposed to do, which is to follow the evidence and follow the law, the conclusion should be the same. >> cnn's priscilla alvarez explains how the white house is reacting to the hunter biden case. >> the white house is maintaining its no comment strategy after attorney general garland announces the u.s. attorney leading the hunter biden probe would be special counsel. now that is consistent with the strategy the white house has taken before over various justice department actions. ian sams said the following when asked about the latest announcement saying, quote, we will refer you to doj or hunter bi biden's personal representatives.
2:37 am
the white house did not receive a heads up on the appointment of a special counsel. that is consistent with other department of justice actions. this is a case that the bidens were hoping to put behind them and close that chapter after that expected plea deal fell ap apart. now they're going to face continued criticism as the legal proceedings unfold. republicans have toyed with potential impeachment inquiry. they have said it's baseless and a stunt but it is all to say that the white house continues to face serious criticism from republicans over the hunter biden probe even on the heels of the attorney general. they have not weighed in on this publicly. they have said he and the first lady jill biden love and support their son. priscilla alvarez, cnn at the white house.

2:40 am
2:41 am
regional leaders appear to be holding off, at least for now, on their threat to send troops into niger to restore the ousted president to power. reuters reports they're moving towards sending a group to negotiate instead. they have shown no design to talk so far. the move comes amid antifrench protests in niger's capitol.
2:42 am
france is supporting the ousted president. some have called for russia to help drive french troops out of the country. cnn's joeim bidderman is live. is paris at all considering pulling out its troops? >> reporter: i don't think so, laila. they've made it pretty clear from the beginning that they are going to keep them there as long as possible. their position is that the deal which allowed the french troops to stay in niger was negotiated with the civilian authorities, the democratically elected president, who of course now is in captivity. that they're going to recognize that agreement as the one that's on perfect rabble and they're going to keep their troops there. having said that, if the military junta should establish
2:43 am
itself, they may be in a difficult position and may have to withdraw the troops. the demonstration you saw the other day was in fact in front of the military base and there are 1500 french troops. i should say as well. there's 1500 troops among american soldiers in the northern part of the country. the american position is the same. re-establish democratically elected president who is being held, we are being told, and this has not been confirmed, held in the basement of the presidential palace. he's being denied water, food, essential medical treatment. there was one report he had seen a doctor but there's been no talk about that. he's 63 years old. he could well become a bargaining chip. the junta will know if they were to lease him or to do something
2:44 am
that would indicate their willingness to concede some kind of an agreement with re-establishing the president, the outside forces might be less severe. right now there's sanctions in place. they're starting to cut off aid to niger and as a consequence they're starting to feel a pinch. it's a standoff for the moment. i think everybody was looking for the situation to end diplomatically. >> they're at an impasse. do we know if there are any mediation efforts underway to release the ousted president? >> reporter: well, not really. in fact, the intentions of the west are well known to the military junta, and there's no real mediation possible because the junta up until now has refused to talk to anyone
2:45 am
including ecowas in terms of releasing the president or doing anything other than keeping themselves in power. there's nothing to indicate there's any movement on the ground. there's going to be apparently, we're told it might be a demonstration this afternoon, in favor of the president in the streets of miami. if that were to happen, that would show support and re-establishing the demo democratically elected president. >> thank you so much. next to ecuador. ecuador's government is sending thousands of military and police officers to take control of a prison zone. it comes days after anticorruption presidential candidate was shot and killed in the capitol. we are in keto with the latest. >> reporter: as part of the state of emergency declared by the president after the
2:46 am
assassination of the presidential candidate, security forces raided a prison on saturday. the officials said the purpose of the deployment was to establish control of weapons, ammunition and explosives within the prison. as far as the operation, a leader of a drug gang was transferred to another prison. the coalition of the murdered candidate chose a replacement to run in the election. it will be his running mate. she told us she knew they were at great risk but never imagined she would be in this position only a week before the election. she also told me the international community should realize drug trafficking and they are not just ecuador's problems but they need to work together to find a solution. >> you never think there will be
2:47 am
assassination of a presidential candidate is such a level of violence, so soon, so close to the presidential elections. i think this is a disturbing moment for the whole region and eventually for the world's democracy. >> reporter: in another development, his wife blames the state as to why it happened. she made the accusation at a news conference saturday. >> translator: they did not protect him as they should have protected him. the state was in charge of fernando's security. the state is directly responsible for the murder of my husband. the state still has to give many answers about everything that happened. his personal guards did not do their job. i do not want to think that they sold my husband to be murdered in this infamous way. >> reporter: a presidential debate is supposed to happen sunday night. two of the remaining candidates said the debate and even the
2:48 am
election itself the following sunday should be delayed but electoral officials said everything will go on as planned. still ahead on "cnn newsroom," the women's world cup semi-finals are set. cnn sport's coy wire joins me next to find out who's left. there he is. oh, i see what you did there! - what? - what? i don't get it. hehe. introducing the limited edition disney collection from blendjet. nine exciting designs your whole famy will adore blendj 2 is portable, which means you can blend up nutritious smoothies protein shakes, or frozen treats, just abo anywhere! recharge quickly via usb-c. it even cleans itself. order yours now from blendjet.com and bring a little disney

2:56 am
i honestly couldn't imagine not being a part of this. when you step in between the lines, you putting yourself at risk by hesitating and reserving yourself, you know what i'm saying? i made the choice that i wanted to play. it wasn't nobody else's choices but mine. there's no other place i'd rather be. >> doesn't he have a great head of hair on him? i envy him. i do not envy what he was feeling. imagining that first hit, it was really overwhelming and here he is, he's powering through it, continuing his dream. >> what a comeback though. long road but, still, great to see. coy, lovely catching up. >> thank you. >> appreciate you. and i'm laila. it's marketplace asia coming up
